MegaKey

by @Leftium

MegaKey (standardization and extension of the Hyper and Meh keys) MegaKey is a proposed standardization + extension of Hyper and Meh - Mental tools for your mind: turn a mouthful like "Shift+Control+Option+Command+C" into "Giga+C" - Software tools for your fingers: easily press Shift+Control+Option+Command+C using just two fingers from a single hand! (via Karabiner rules) I renamed Hyper and Meh because the modifier key combinations varied depending on the source. I picked the most logical combination: Giga == Shift + Mega I picked the names/symbols and even modifier combinations so they would be easy remember. Explained in detail: https://leftium.github.io/megakey/modifiers --- In addition, I created 3 more pseudo-modifier keys. They are very handy for existing shortcuts. For example: - Wish+Space: TrellisWM "Show everything"[1] (Ctrl+Option+Space) - Chaos+N: Chrome "Add tab to new split view" (Cmd+Option+N) - More useful pre-existing shortcuts: https://leftium.github.io/megakey/shortcuts [1]: https://trelliswm.app/docs/#shortcuts
